    Powers:

    Resolved an issue that was allowing the Adapted M.A.C.O. Pulsewave Phaser Rifle to ignore the effects of Borg Adaptation.


    What the hell? That was a bonus of the weapon. It's not a bug so don't remove it.

    With the adapted passive skill from the rep, you should be able to fire 15-25 shots before they adapt, at least that has been my experience. About once every 3 mins.

    The difference is that you can get the solanae set at lvl 50, borg set you need to go through the rep.

    Exactly, you don't have to grind threw all that rep. That's why I don't do alts, even with the Main Toon reputation tokens, as I can't use them because you MUST have an account bank. Why can't it detect that I'm mailing it to my own handle...

    Look, it's really quite simple:

    Engineering: "Captain, it's gonna take two hours to repair the warp core!"
    *half hour later*
    Engineering: "Captain, we're good to go!"

    =

    Captain: "... I need to promote my chief engineer!" O.o

    However:

    Engineering: "I need two and a half hours to repair the warp core."
    *2.5 hours later*
    Engineering: "I need another half hour."

    =

    Captain: "... I need to maroon my chief engineer!" -.-

    See where I'm coming from? ;)

    You preform server maintenance uniformly every Thursday from 0700-0930 PST which is 1000-1230 EST, for valuable and loyal members of the community that reside on the east coast that work at night instead of during the day this is a prime time to turn on our game. Can you choose a less intrusive time, like earlier in the AM even for easterners or in the middle of the night?

    Thank you for this consideration, and thank you for this wonderfully addicting game

    Yeah! Cryptic needs to take Scotty's method... tell them it takes 4hrs when it takes 2. Then you're a hero.

    Geordi tells the captain how long it will take and then Picard gives him half that. Geordi was always rushed.

    Look at Scotty's gut, he had plenty of free time, obviously. :D

    That request has been made in several variations over and over for many months now. And nothing has changed. I resign myself to the fact it won't change.

    Isn't 'always'. Hell I'd be happy with 'occasionally'.

    It always happens at my best time of the day, as well.

    Just got used to it, is all. It's only one day a week... unless they break something...

    I'm a computer programmer and I use Scotty's method all the time and it's great. Seems Cryptic likes the reverse effect, over promise and seem like they failed for not delivering on time.

    About the time they pick to do it, they probably come in one hour early to work and it's the first thing they do out there in CA. Good way to kill time early in the morning when work drags horribly.

    Yes please, change your patch times. Do them over night PST like half the other mmo games out there.
